Carly Mul - Collage

Carly, a (Dutch) lawyer by education, discovered a passion for fabric when she was in her thirties and had moved with her family from the Netherlands to the USA. She started Box Emotions, a craft business in which she sold hundreds of fabric-covered handmade boxes all over the country. 

She works in her studio on her art and teaches collage quilting at guilds and shows (national and international). In an effort to help her students find the fabrics they need, she started www.collagefabric.com in September 2024, a site dedicated to collage quilting with super small fabric cuts.

Carly’s eye for color is well known in the quilting world. Customers have used her knowledge for their projects, she wrote a weekly newsletter in which she often described why a certain fabric was worth taking a closer look at. Carly has given lectures and workshops about trends in color and collage, her personal favorite style of quilting. She has been consulted by fabric companies for her input on collections and is available for color consulting to everyone who wants to ask her a question. Carly has a broad knowledge about the quilting industry, the business side as well as the creative side.

Her book "Freestyle Color Collage" was launched on 2/25/2025.
